The Hamden & Bailey minstrels have come

to witness their performance we would respect
fully warn the public to look out for them, fol
a show that wants to avoid the comments o

Messrs. Roney g. Abrams, for the sum o.
$4,000. The fixtures and furnishings viii
cost near or quite $4,000, making in all an in

Rev. J. c. Richardson of Eugene ha
! brought his blooded dogs to the Oakland an
Wilbur section, and the coyotes will now real
ize that ''distance will lend enchantment,
but Capt. Short thinks that he has dogs equa
to all occasions. We hope TO hear from tn
blooded hound that leads in the chase.
Thos. Grisdale has done road work tha
will ''stand the Storm on the Hubbard cree
road. The worst mudhole in the countr
of about one half mile in length has bee
. rocked all the way. This is the corree
course TO pursue, if you only build 10 rod
every year, make it good.
The Portland News has greatly improve,

. The St. Louis people have at last adopt
the Downing Sunday law, dormant for TWEEN
years, through the signature Of Governor Ma
